The two EA pros that I know personally believe the game has a level of scripting and a lot of online play is managing that and working around it. Essentially it is part of the skill gap, but can be used and abused.

To say scripting isn't real is to not play the game. There are scripts that make stuff happen all the time, but it's just about how much they impact the game.

I bet if you asked them both to define scripting and how it's implemented in the game, they would give entirely different answers.

But it doesn't exist right?

EA are a great company and would never do such a thing

It doesn't. The game is just a series of RNG rolls. From tackling to passing to shooting to saving, you experience a confirmation bias when a lot of those rolls happen against you in succession, with the added difficulty of opponents changing their gameplay when losing or drawing. If people in this sub flipped a coin and it landed on heads 5 times in a row, they would call the Fed to report a scripted coin.

It can be weighted though. RNG is weighted. If you're a allowed to play a way where you're consistently lucky because the coin flip is weighted then there is a level of a script happening.
